But how can I extract a meaningful relaxation time from there?

Maybe instead of individual atoms, I should analyze the VACF of the center of 
mass of each molecule, and the rotational ACF. The latter I know how to do it. 
Is there an "easy" way to calculate the former?

Anyway, in this case it makes sense to divide the system in molecules, because 
that's what it is, but if it were say a protein, what would be the best way to 
analize the VACF and get some meaningful relaxation time?

Thank you,
Ignacio
